    So first phone was an Ericson T10, this was basically the cheapest GSM in the late 90’s. After that I got a Nokia 3310 (flashed with 3315 firmware and with a Bacardi case) which had a bigger screen, so multiple lines of text on-screen. Also, you could send images over SMS and install custom midi ringtones. Next a Samsung X600 with a color screen and camera. After that a T-Mobile MDA vario (rebranded HTC Wizard 200) which was a less than great very bulky phone, but it had windows and a (stylus only) touch screen. I can’t really remember why I got it though. After that a Nokia N95, the last one before my first smart phone, which was a LG optimus 2X.
